Hoya Houseplant Collection Tour and Care Tips | A Beginners Plant? | Yay or Nay

Hey Everyone,
I was looking at all the different types of plants I have, and I realized that out of all them, the plant species that I have the most of, are Hoya’s. I guess I never realized it because most of my Hoya’s are small, but they have become one of my favourite houseplants lately. Partly because of their beautiful wax like foliage and blooms. I also find them easy to care for all year long.
In this video I’ll go through my collection tour and share with you how I care for my Hoya’s. Let me know what you guys think after the video. Are they an easy enough to care for houseplant for beginners and black thumb’rs ?

Are Hoyas a beginners houseplant? What kind was your first Hoya? 😊

[@ibforbes70]

I agree! Once you have one, you can't get enough of these beautiful beings!! My first was the same, Hoya Parasitica with my second being the Hoya Pubicalyx. They are so interesting to watch grow. Truly appreciate your videos! Thanks for sharing

[@tinamuller3189]

Crazy Plant Guy my first Hoya was a given to me by a friend ( twenty years ago ) a Hoya Carnosa ....bloomed once but the blooms were amazing! I have to say Hoyas are my favourite houseplants💚

[@marianne9691]

My first hoya is a beautiful publicalix splash and he is still very happy in my care 😊

[@lovelight9164]

I think hoyas are perfect for beginners. I have 7 different hoyas and 3 of the Crimson princess. I have a hoya Bella and love her but she was only 2 limbs when I got her I did cut them both and propigated the cuttings back into her pot I also bought a second Bella in a 4" pot she was supposed to be delivered on April 24th but now its showing monday. A 60th Birthday gift to myself as well as a 4 inch verigated string of hearts. Your hoyas are beautiful!! I have a krinkle 8 and a couple starts of a chelsie I love them both. I gave my mom the hindu rope. I guess I dont have the patience for the rope. I like to see new growth. Happy growing to you.

[@claudiasmith9117]

Sounds like you re-pot FAR too often. I have had hoyas for 20 years. I re-potted them the moment they came home. That was 17 years ago. The originals are still in their pots and they bloom. Every year (May to Oct) They will not flower if you keep disrupting their home. When it comes to amending the soil, I have simply left the OG's in their pots and scraped out what soil I could and added new soil. There are 3 that I have repotted as they are huge and out grown their original pot. They still flowered that year because I repotted then in the down season so they had time to get used to their new homes.

[@CrazyPlantGuy]

Oh my...Thank you so much Claudia for all of these great tips and information you’re sharing from years of experience. Wow. Love hearing others experiences especially when you’ve had your plants for a long time. So cool. 😊🌿💜

[@aprillee2217]

I never realized Hoyas could be so sensitive to change in pots, but actually it makes sense when I think about an experience I had. The only Hoyas that ever died on me had fallen from a shelf really high up and I think the plant got shocked from the strong impact and being out of its pot. It was like it just withered up and died.

[@anastrinavic9669]

After repotting, hoya first fills the pot with roots and then flowers, so with frequent repotting you are postponing the bloom. (That's what they told me at my local flower shop.)

[@walle5667]

I have a different experience. I repot every other year or every three years. My hoyas grow faster that way and they continue to bloom. My biggest hoya had been last repotted spring 2019 and spring this year it was worrying me very much, getting dehydrated fast, even though I was watering every week! So I checked and it seemed awfully rootbound. Since it was starting to bud up, I didn't want it to blow the buds, so I carefully repotted it in such a way that I barely disturbed any roots. I just lifted the plant out of the pot (big plant, 11 years old 😅 ), set it in a pot 2 sizes bigger, old soil and all, and just refilled with new soil. The roots didn't even notice a thing, but the dehydration symptoms went away, leaves got plump again and none of the peduncles got blasted. Had 11 flower clusters that spring :)

[@50Street21]

I do love the continuity of your white pots, Christian. Your eye goes to the plants and not the containers. You just made my Sunday morning. Coffee, you and your hoyas! Thank you my friend. Darryl

[@mintaandersson5160]

Yes you have a pedunkel on the H. mathilde :-). My first Hoya was a H. carnosa, I got her as a little leaf :-)... and now we have spent over 40 years together :-)

[@CrazyPlantGuy]

Wow. 40 years. Amazing, man that’s so cool hearing stories of plants that people have owned for along time. I’m looking forward to the many years I’m going to have with these Hoyas. So exciting. Thanks for sharing. 😊🌿💚

[@auntylinda7640]

I was amazed and stunned when I saw a Hoya carnosa compacta in my local plant shop. She was quite expensive, but I had to have her. Her name is Mabel and she has been living with me for 10 or so years. I would put a photo on if I could. Love and hugs, stay safe xxx

[@CrazyPlantGuy]

Wow what a find and 10 years old now. Must look amazingly beautiful. 😍

Yaaaaaas you keep your hoyas in plastic pots just like me.🙌🏼 I converted the last of my hoyas into a plastic pot a couple fo weeks ago and they're all so much happier with firmer leaves. Also, that looks like a peduncle on your hoya mathilde congrats! Doug over at VermontHoyas mentioned once that his hoyas have bloomed sitting in northern windows so I think these plants are very adaptable and constantly surprising. My Hoya Wayetii is shoved right up in a south-west facing window and growing like wildfire now.

My 1st Hoya was a vine that fell off a Crimson princess hanging pot from a big box store. I asked the manager if I could take it, she said yes. Rooted some in water the rest in a potting mix. Both have rooted and are now residing in a 4" pot together. Then last Friday I found a full hanging pot of Crimson Princess in HD for $9.96😍. I have also recently acquired a String bean hoya and an Australis. The addiction is real! I really wanted a retusa...purchased 2 and both died, even the cutting with roots turned yellow and died when water propogated.😭

Haha riiight. 🇵🇭

[@valinamaria]

I got a hoya cutting from a friend's mom and she has had it for 25 years in the same pot! Blooms 3 times a year, many Blooms. If you get a bigger pot they will concentrate on the roots instead of leaves and flowers. Same with all her plants. She has had even older plants in the same pot and they love being root bound! She has also had weird Blooms like sanseveria (I did not know it bloomed). But do trim them sometimes. I'm a plant newbie but I learn from veterans 😁

Only one had a tiny puduncle (flower) I have propogated about 6 of them inside & they took off like a jet too & they are outside too.

[@bmmwatson]

My first Hoya was a publicalyx, and it bloomed for me after three years. I think the more root-bound they are, the more they want to bloom. But we’ll see. My collection keeps growing. I think I have around 20 different plants now, mostly different species.

[@hollyhasegawa6095]

I'm with you Christian, once you get one Hoya, you have to keep getting more. My first Hoya was a Carnosa, from a two leaf cutting my Mom gave me over 20 years ago, and I ended up propagating it and the new plant is going crazy with all of it's new growth, they are so easy to water propagate, at least it was for me. I have 9 so far, but probably 6 of the ones you have are on my wish list. I think if you have the right lighting conditions for them they would be an easy houseplant to start with. Thanks so much for this video and I hope you stay safe and I look forward to your next video, XOXO, bye for now.

[@NewUkeNewYork]

I love to buy the “basic,” more common Hoya that are considered more “beginner” plants because they like to dry out and don’t act dramatic once I find a spot in the house they like. Because they’re slower growers for me, I’d rather pay a little more and get a bigger one than get the tiny ones. I do use the spray orchid fertilizer, too.

Christian, thanks for sharing the variety of Hoya's you have. You've inspired me to get others ;-) My first, and only one ,so far, is a Carnosa Krimson Queen, and I have to say it is very easy to take care of. I live in San Francisco so I have it in an east facing window so it does get about 2 hours of direct sunlight and seems to be thriving. Too much so perhaps. It has two very long ( leafless) vines and I was going to ask if i can cut them back to make the plant grow more from the base? I like to have plants trail but it's making one that is 3 feet long Thanks again for sharing all of your plants and how you care for them with us

Crazy Plant Guy Thank you! I also have a few others you don’t have! The Lineras and the Tricolor!!! You have a bunch of ones I don’t have. I really want the Sunrise? One... 🤩

Hello I love this plant..

[@nikkisison4898]

I own about 45+ different species and cultivars of Hoya and I must say most have similar care but some does require a little bit more humidity and can be more fussy than most. Other than that, I’d say the more common Carnosas are the easiest and are definitely a good beginner Hoya for those who are still unfamiliar and would like to expand their collection. For the more rare Hoya, I would definitely do my research first as they do get quite pricey depending on your location. Lastly, I believe my first ever Hoya was Carnosa Tricolor aka Krimson Queen. Ever since then, I was hooked!

Wow 45+ so cool. Thanks for sharing your experience with different types that may require a bit more experience. Agree that once you get into the rare kinda just like tropical plants to do some research first. 😊

I have a Crimson Queen and just got my #1 Wishlist Hoya, Fishtail Hoya, this past week!

[@CrazyPlantGuy]

Oh my, I just googled fishtail Hoya. Ok ima want that on my list too. 😆 Thanks for sharing.

[@Kinzo12696]

@@CrazyPlantGuy They are beautiful! It didn't ship all that great, though. In shock a little after its trip. Hopefully it recovers well 😅

[@peggylee5021]

Your hoyas are beautiful! Just bought a couple and will see how they fare.

[@CrazyPlantGuy]

Yay. Congrats on your new Hoyas

Loving your shirt! Hindu rope is on my wish list....but now I have to change that to a variegated! Love the video 👍🏻🌱

[@CrazyPlantGuy]

Thank you. Yes the variegated one is so pretty. 😊

[@SheenaShines]

You have such gorgeous hoyas!🤩 I have 2 hoyas (they’re both krimson queens) and I find them so easygoing. I go to the crystal star nursery website and see their interesting & beautiful hoyas - I think I’ll order this summer.👍🏽
